[pct-l] Glasses



I also used a pair of those rather inexpensive oversized sun glasses over my
regular glasses. They worked just fine. However, the optics weren't the best
so I did get some distortion. Also, they scratched up after a while. But,
they did the trick. Just buy a few pair. You certainly will need them on the
snow.
